Wolfgang Puck's second restaurant opened in 1983. A unique blend of Chinese and French fusion explodes with flavors unheard of before. Imitated but yet never captured to this day this fusion of flavors keeps you craving and coming back for more. The food is served family style, creating a fun sharing experience that brings people together. The trend setting open kitchen where you can sit and eat while you watch the dance of the chefs working in unison. ***If you are interested in reserving our dining counter please make a request while making a reservation since seating is very limited***

Food was innovative and delicious but catfish was hardly enough for 3 of us-not a good value!! Duck pancakes and veggie fried rice were good as was rock shrimp and fried calamari appetizer. Apple dessert was perfect for our birthday celebration! Noise level was awful. Our waiter was unprofessional and unhelpful. We waited 40 minutes for our main courses!!! Need I say more??!?

Such a beautiful restaurant with a wonderful staff, and consistently excellent food. I’ve been dining there for 25 years. The best Chinese chicken salad, delectable duck pancakes/crepes, crab cakes, vegetable rice, beef, and dessert! Our server Cheryl was superb!
